Impact of Database Encryption on Web Application Performance 2024 http://ezaposleni.singidunum.ac.rs/rest/sciNaucniRezultati/oai/record/1/10131 https://portal.sinteza.singidunum.ac.rs/paper/958 A. Vidaković T. Petrović P. Kresoja M. Veinović This study explores the performance impact of integrating AES-256-GCM encryption into web application operations, examining both read and write processes involving encrypted and non-encrypted user data. After a series of tests aimed to assess the response times for creating and fetching user records, our research reveals that implementation of database encryption introduces modest overhead for read requests, and minimal overhead on write operations. Even under conditions simulating high concurrency and mixed operation loads, the difference in performance remains relatively small. These findings show that encryption can be implemented within web applications with only a slight compromise in performance. This research provides important insights into the practical balance between security and performance in the development of secure web applications. conferenceObject 82 87 10.15308/Sinteza-2024-82-87 Sinteza 2024
